I hope everyone will allow me to indulge in a little self-congratulation: This comic marks #200! I started making Political Animals as a way to voice my frustration with the way things are and try to expose the inconsistencies in the right wing’s logic. Thanks to BooMan for providing this forum and thanks to all of you who read my attempts at humor and have such kind things to say.
That being said, today’s cartoon deals with an issue I find troubling, not just because of the issue itself but because of the lack of coverage it’s getting (we’ve all heard that before). Now, I realize that there’s only so much time in a news show and the rumored Nick Lachey/Jessica Simpson break-up does take precedence, of course, but I wish the MSM would spend just a little time on the government’s discussions on amending or abolishing the Posse Comitatus and allowing the military a police role here at home (because the National Guard is over fighting in Iraq). The cartoon speculates on how things got so messed up.

Congratulations Spike! Thanks for your daily series, they are always spot-on for the issue du jour. I’m hosting the Froggy Bottom Cafe today (Tues.) and will give you a shout-out for your milestone.
Cheers!
Hey, thanks! Does this mean I buy the first round? =^)
Congrats on the milestone Spike!
That’s a great milestone. Way to go! Go out and have yourself a small party. Dinner and a movie or something. You’ll never hit 200 again, make the best of the opportunity. I always enjoy your cartoons, keep up the great work.
Congratulations!
I always enjoy your work, and make sure to see every one.
Why do your farm animals have more common sense than the jackasses in DC?
